The sky was absolutely clear, a small breeze kept the air moving around. Rob parked his car at the end of the student's parking lot and walked towards the doors to the rear of the college.

The student was quietly confident and walked up to the building without much anticipation. One of his classmates walked out of the building through the crowd.

“How did you do?” Rob asked with a smile.

“C, C, B,” his relived friend replied.

“Super, well-done dude … How did I do?” Rob asked.

“I'm not telling you “ he laughed “go look for yourself” Colin instructed his class friend.

He turned around and looked back at him “ you did well you’ll be pleased”

Students were now flowing out of the building some crying, others shouting and hi-fiving. Only a few looked sad but not surprisingly sad. However, Rob was on autopilot, he did not enter into conversations with anyone else he weaved in and out and around them gliding his way into the building.

The results were printed on tabular sheets attached to a line of notice boards in a wide hallway. He found his form group and looked down until he found his name

“B, B, D,” he said to himself, “nice … that will do”

Rob walked straight out of the building with a smile. He pulled out his mobile phone from the front pocket of his Prada rucksack and called his old friend Lee “I want to buy the car dude … how much?”
